The thunder roars as if God is screaming,
disappointed in the way his children have
chosen to journey through life,

His torment cuts like a knife
and so lightning 'ensues
to show them the way.

Then the rain falls,
the tears he sheds
for us all.

Old Man and The Ocean

The Old man on the ocean is older than the hills, he never learned to relax or take chill pills,

He is completely unaware that aging is a privilege not bestowed upon many,

For him, it is all about accumulating the pennies,

His two loves are money and the sea where he can embark on his boat and sail to places unknown,

Oftentimes he takes to the sea as if it were his only respite, abandoning everything that makes him feel ill equipped,

Only the ocean understands his moods, because when he is angry, he even curses at the food he captures from the water, the squirming fish become his scapegoats, as he emotes endlessly,

The sea is the only place he feels in charge, since there is nothing but hostility and chaos at large on land, from the day he put his self in careless hands.

The old man has become nothing but a curmudgeon who manages to push everyone's buttons, the only place that can tolerate his over inflated ego, is the sea and all its cargo,

So, he chants and rants as he sails against the winds, with an old bottle of gin hoping to end up in some place they speak Latin.

The goal of a writer is to gently nudge people into questioning the "status quo".

Our current situation: People are just responding to the echoes of life.

Our hearts grieve for the two young children killed in the Catholic School Shooting. Losing a child is unbearable and makes parents inconsolable. Write about that. Rest In Peace.

God is great, God is good,
God please protect our neighborhoods,
by ending the hate,

Watch over the children as they go on their merry
ways and prevent the parents from enduring funeral days,
Round up all the perpetrators and dash them in the abyss,
May this be the last day a gunman acts careless,

Give us strength to rally against the criminals,
Turning the tables, doing unto them what they
have done unto us.

Psalm 127:3 "Children are the heritage of the Lord. offspring a reward from him."
